As I sit here below the light And write these words to you And I'm thinking how time just flies Years of yesterdays all feel like they're new I remember those cold cold nights Felt like they started at noon We only saw pitch black, Not the man in the moon Now we look from the outside We've distanced the pain We've boxed disappointments and put them away We don't cry anymore And every once in a while there's a smile Now don't let expectations Fill the room of your heart It'll shape it and break it Till we've drifted apart Now we look from the outside We've distanced the pain We've boxed disappointments and put them away We don't cry anymore And every once in a while there's a smile Now we look from the outside We've distanced the pain We've boxed disappointments and put them away We don't cry anymore And every once in a while Now there's a Smile here this afternoon As I write these words to you In a while, with our hope renewed We look up to sky Just you and I And the man in the moon
